ISO Certification

About ISO and all those confusing acronyms.

ISO is the International Organization for Standards. It collaborated with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) to form a joint technical committee (JCT) to develop standards around information technology. So this committee is ISO/IEC JTC 1.

JCT 1 has many subcommittees (SC). SC 34 is devoted to document description and processing languages, and thus has jurisdiction over things like EPUB and OpenOffice XML. Hence we speak of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 34.

The subcommittee has four working groups. One of these working groups is (you'll have guessed by now) a joint working group with other ISO and/or IEC committees. So now we have ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 34/JWG 7.
